M Hunter Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I do not think there would ever have been more than one KVK2 on a medal bar regardless with or without swords. Looks like a made-up bar in my opinion. Matt
Claudio Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Well to me it looks like a "Real Fake"... excuse me but I couldn't resist! :rolleyes:
Ulsterman Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Against regs? Yup. But I'd put that one in the maybe/probably category. Look at the construction. That is older and well done and unusually uses a sewing pattern not used much. Whoever made that had some talent and skill. Really odd things are showing up photographically and it might make sense for for some Blockleiter in Berlin etc. I vote maybe-

An old soldier, active up to 1938-39, getting the kvkII with swords and the 2 occupationmedals and finding other professional horizons afther that. We are talking about a 14 million people army here. So there must be thousands of non standard carrier moves. How many badly wounded soldiers took up other positions in society? So i would not discard this one just yet.

Matt I got these from Heiko the other week....2 KVKs, one with swords, and the other without (the swords are missing on the ribbon bars but the holes where they were are obvious)...so quite possible to have both! cheers Jas
all1knew Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Hello all, My opinion goes to the medal bar being authentic and period put-together. It isn't textbook by any means but it doesn't look made-up either. William Kramer
